The land of Shanxi did not become calm because of the escape of the Japanese army, on the contrary, because of the original division of the three families, this land once again became full of taste, especially the grievances between the national prefix and the common prefix.

The grievances between the two sides have been going on for a long time, and because of what happened in southern Anhui, the contradictions between the two sides have become unprecedentedly tense. This can be seen from Taiyuan Chengnei.

The Guozitou army that entered Taiyuan had the Jin Sui Army and the Central Army waiting for them, and it seemed that they were about to snatch Taiyuan City from the Gongzitou in their hands, and the war between the two sides was about to break out.

Yan Laoxi was even more angry, Taiyuan City was his, and now it was divided into three parts, and their Jin Sui Army occupied the smallest part, of course he protested to Hu Guoshan, but Hu Guoshan gave him the answer, this is the new 33rd Army divided out, not them, if they came one step earlier and gave him the money and equipment earlier, he Hu Guoshan promised not to give Taiyuan to the people with the prefix.

However, it is too late to say this, now that the money and equipment have been in Hu Guoshan's hands, if you want Hu Guoshan to spit it out, I am afraid that there will be no door, Yan Laoxi can only swallow his anger, at least they have now stepped into Taiyuan with one foot.

"Chief Yan, don't be angry, so I'll be the east, invite the representative of the prefix to come, let's talk together, if there are any problems, we will solve them on the spot, what do you think?" Hu Guoshan said to Yan Laoxi on the phone.

Yan Laoxi is dumb and can't say that he has suffered from eating Coptis chinensis, even if there is fire, he can't do it in front of Hu Guoshan, otherwise others will think that he has no bearing, and as long as he waits for Chongqing's order, when Hu Guoshan leaves Shanxi, he will be able to control two-thirds of Taiyuan, and he can use a little means to squeeze out the people with the prefix of the word.

Since Ding Yuan would go to report the situation in Taiyuan to his superiors, the people at the beginning of the co-rule praised Ding Yuan's ability to do things, and let him act as the agent of the Eighth Route Army to deal with things in Taiyuan.

Ding Yuanchunfeng, who had won the trust of his superiors, was proud and took a reinforced battalion of soldiers of the Eighth Route Army to station in Taiyuan first, and two days later the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army approved another regiment of troops to garrison in Taiyuan.

The troops in Taiyuan are the least of the CCP's troops, but they are also elite troops, at least there are not many problems in terms of defense, not to mention Hu Guoshan's troops, the leaders of the Communist Party believe that if they are really attacked by the troops of the Guozitou, Hu Guoshan will definitely help them, and it is enough to arrange a regiment of troops in Taiyuan City.

The Eighth Route Army's office in Taiyuan had just been set up, and there was no telephone line yet, so Hu Guoshan arranged for a communications corps to inform Ding Yuan of the situation, and tomorrow at noon Hu Guoshan's residence held a banquet to invite Ding Yuan and Yan Laoxi.

Ding Yuan didn't think much about Hu Guoshan's invitation, after all, they came to Taiyuan because the New 33rd Army invited them to come, even if he was no longer willing to eat at the same table with the people of the country, but Hu Guoshan's face still had to be given.

"Brother Liao, what do you think we need to prepare tomorrow so that we can't lose etiquette and make us feel that the New 33rd Army is graceful?" Hu Guoshan asked Liao Jundong's opinion.

"It's up to you, don't forget that your current identity is a military commander, and in the eyes of Yan Laoxi, you don't belong to the New 33rd Army, and I won't show up tomorrow!"

Tomorrow's banquet table will definitely be a huge * bucket, if Liao Jundong shows up, it will definitely ignite the lead of this * bucket, just in case, Liao Jundong decided to avoid it for the time being, at least not to stabilize both sides, and not let both sides feel that this is the new 33rd Army behind their backs.

"Hey~ Now~ I understand more and more what Brother Fan said, the higher I climb, the closer I get to the center of politics, I'm tired!"

Although the situation of the new 33rd Army has now opened, Hu Guoshan still feels that the days in Taihang Mountain are the happiest time, although life is hard, everyone is together, and any problems are discussed and solved together. Now there are all kinds of things to do, and no one has free time.

"People go to high places, water flows to low places, we can't curl up in Taihang Mountain all our lives, right?" Liao Jundong understands Hu Guoshan, and he also wants to live an easy life, but now embarking on the current path means that they have to give up a more comfortable life.

In the era of war, their generation has been given such a responsibility, since it is a responsibility that belongs to them, they must bear it, even if it is nameless, even if it is broken bones, someone must shed blood and sacrifice, in exchange for the hope of seeing the dawn, otherwise future generations will fall into the dark abyss forever for a little hope, and cannot turn over.

"I'll go get ready first!"

Hu Guoshan has become more and more stable since he came back from his injury in Taihang Mountain last time, Liao Jundong thought that he was pressed by things, but it is better to be busy than idle, many things have no results, but we still have to do it, thinking that this proves that we are still alive and have a little bit of survival value.

The banquet was held in the courtyard of Hu Guoshan's residence, and in order to prepare for this banquet, Hu Guoshan also specially transferred the cooking class of the division headquarters. Yan Laoxi was the first to arrive, and Ding Yuan followed, but when Ding Yuan saw Yan Laoxi, he deliberately pretended not to know, neither greeted Yan Laoxi nor saluted him, but just took his two guards to find a place to sit down.

"Come, Commissar Ding, let me introduce you, this is Chief Yan!" Hu Guoshan saw at a glance what Political Commissar Ding meant, and Ding Yuan definitely didn't want to greet the person with the prefix of the country.

But Hu Guoshan has no choice, the purpose of his banquet is to alleviate the direct contradiction between the two sides, even if the other party doesn't like it anymore, he has to forcibly pull the two people together, at least there is a chance to know before there is a possibility of easing, not even a chance to meet, the two sides can only greet each other with guns in the end.

However, Ding Yuan still had a very reluctant expression, just nodded, and did not salute Yan Laoxi as a soldier, Hu Guoshan had no choice but to introduce Ding Yuan's identity to Yan Laoxi.

At the beginning of the banquet, after Hu Guoshan said a few words as the host, the scene became extremely embarrassing, Yan Laoxi is a person who has seen the world, although the meal prepared by Hu Guoshan is much more exquisite than usual, but as the head of one party, he just eats two bites at this kind of banquet, after all, this kind of banquet is mainly to talk about things.

And Ding Yuan since yesterday heard that Hu Guoshan was going to set up a banquet and entertain, he emptied his stomach early in the morning, didn't eat breakfast, and waited for noon to come and eat a good meal, since the banquet, Ding Yuan did not put down the chopsticks in his hand, that is, when he spoke, his mouth was also full, and finally when he saw him, no one on the table dared to talk to Ding Yuan. So only Hu Guoshan was pushing the cup with Yan Laoxi.

"Political Commissar Ding, I invited you here this time to ease the relationship between you, and everyone can solve the problem by sitting together!"

Hu Guoshan's meaning is very clear, this is indeed a banquet, and things are put on the table for food, but this is not the main purpose, the purpose is to ease the relationship between you, now Taiyuan is like a huge * barrel, the people are panicked all day long, if the problem is not solved, Taiyuan will become a real dead city if it goes on like this.

Ding Yuan finally put down the chopsticks in his hand, burped, swept the leftovers on the table with his eyes, and nodded with satisfaction: "Master Hu has taken great pains, and I am also happy to talk to Chief Yan!" ”

"Chief Yan, among all of you present, your military rank is the highest and the highest position, you should have given an order directly, my Lao Hu shouldn't have done more, but this involves the interests of all parties, the most innocent of them are the people in Taiyuan City, and those of us who serve as soldiers are not all to protect the people!"

Hu Guoshan's words can be said to have given Yan Laoxi enough face, although the people present are not on the table compared to your Lao Yan, but you Lao Yan has a large number of them, so they can be regarded as able to take charge of things, so they will be on the table.

Hearing Hu Guoshan say this, Yan Laoxi didn't want to say anything, he really wanted to talk to the co-word head who had never met, but people were still unwilling to deal with him, things have come to this point, as the head snake of Shanxi, Yan Laoxi didn't want to beat Shanxi into a thousand holes, and finally sat on the mess and looked up to the sky and sighed.

"Commander Hu, I definitely want to give you face, Chongqing values your military ability very much, maybe after a few days of orders, Commander Hu will be transferred to Chongqing to take up an important position, and it is an honor to have the opportunity to sit with you, but the affairs of these two families can't be discussed as a family matter, right? Taiyuan City is now divided, presumably the people of Taiyuan City also want to see a complete Taiyuan! And not the Taiyuan it is now! ”

"Taiyuan was recovered by Commander Hu with his troops, I have no opinion on being able to be stationed in Taiyuan City, our Jin Sui Army is also the son of the people of Shanxi, and it also carries orders! But some people come uninvited, eat and drink, isn't that a bit unruly? ”

Ding Yuan immediately heard that Yan Laoxi's words were directed at him: "Commander-in-Chief Yan, rules? Were the rules set by Commander-in-Chief Yan? ”

"Don't be angry with either of you, what two families are not two families, we are all one family, we are all Chinese!" As soon as Hu Guoshan saw that the atmosphere was wrong, he immediately played a round.

However, the contradictions between the two sides have been going on for a long time, how can they let go of their hatred for each other because of a few words.

"Although the rules are not set by me Yan, but your Eighth Route Army also belongs to the battle sequence of the national army, and you must always obey orders and obey commands, is it a bit too much for you to behave like this?"

"What are we doing? Thousands of officers and men of the New Fourth Army fell under the guns of your country in the Southern Anhui Incident, who is doing wrong with each other? Isn't it Jiang who is doing something wrong? in the same room is the rule set by him Jiang someone? Ding Yuan shouted loudly unceremoniously.
